Yes, B-Movie Fans, the 1984 Michael Crichton classic starring Tom Selleck, Gene Simmons, and nicely, but not overly, rounded Kirstie Alley. Household robots are being programmed to kill by an evil genius. I picked this one because I got one of my kids a Roombra for Christmas.

libertarian socialism: An anarchist who likes government. A libertarian who hates freedom. A communist/socialist with a different name for PR reasons. Basically something that doesn’t make sense. Another way of describing it…a monkey in a pinata.

Libertarian Socialism is the perfect ideology for a schizo.

As my friend Leslie Bates often says, “What are your questions on this block of instruction?”

Tell your 5th grade teacher, when she starts in with the Vegan lecture again during a spelling lesson, that you’re going to kill and eat your supper as soon as you can get your hands on some weapons. Then inform her that if she gives you anything less than a ‘B” on any report card because you told her that, your father will have a phalanx of lawyers turn her life into a deposition purgatory. Then don’t pass in any homework for the remainder of the term. Let’s see who has the stones.

Let’s be honest here, the “tax increase on the richest Americans” that the democrats keep repeating their talking points on, won’t effect the “richest Americans” one damn bit.

Take my senior Senator for example, based on his income as a Senator alone, he should be paying federal tax at a rate in the mid thirties. In addition to his tax payer funded income, he personally is worth hundreds of millions of dollars, plus he married a woman who inherited billions of dollars from her late husband. His federal tax rate is 14%.

The tax hike the democrats are so hot for won’t effect his tax rate one damn bit. So the democrat’s rhetoric about having the richest Americans pair their fair share of taxes is a flat out lie.

One of good ideas of the President’s deficit reduction panel was to drastically simplify the tax code and reduce the highest tax rate to 25%. That will reduce the 30% plus overhead of the IRS and get uber-rich democrats, like my senior Senator, to actually pay their fair share of the taxes paid by almost every other working American.

Don’t expect democrats to embrace this idea though. It goes against their core values, like waging class warfare.

Woot! This South Korean homage to Sergio Leone’s spaghetti Westerns is one Hell of a fun ride! It’s Manchuria in the 1930’s and everyone is after a treasure map. Really, everyone, including the Japanese army and multiple criminal gangs.
